NAME

atalkd.conf - Configuration file used by atalkd(8) to determine the
interfaces used by the master Netatalk daemon

DESCRIPTION

/etc/netatalk/atalkd.conf is the configuration file used by atalkd to
configure the Appletalk interfaces and their behavior
Any line not prefixed with # is interpreted. The configuration lines
are composed like:
Interface[options]
The simplest case is to have either no atalkd.conf, or to have one that
has no active lines. In this case, atalkd should auto-discover the
local interfaces on the machine. Please note that you cannot split
lines.
The interface is the network interface that this to work over, such as
eth0 for Linux, or le0 for Sun.
The possible options and their meanings are:
-addrnet.node
Allows specification of the net and node numbers for this
interface, specified in Appletalk numbering format (example:
-addr66.6).
-dontroute
Disables Appletalk routing. It is the opposite of -router.
-netfirst[-last]
Allows the available net to be set, optionally as a range.
-noallmulti (linux only)
On linux the interfaces, atalkd uses, are set to ALLMULTI by
default caused by countless NICs having problems without being
forced into this mode (some even don’t work with allmulti set).
In case, you’ve a NIC known to support multicasts properly, you
might want to set this option causing less packets to be
processed
-phase(1|2)
Specifies the Appletalk phase that this interface is to use
(either Phase 1 or Phase 2).
-router
Like -seed, but allows single interface routing. It is the
opposite of -dontroute.
-seed The seed option only works if you have multiple interfaces. It
also causes all missing arguments to be automagically configured
from the network.
-zonezonename
Specifies a specific zone that this interface should appear on
(example: -zone"ParkingLot"). Please note that zones with
spaces and other special characters should be enclosed in
parentheses.
